CLASSIC CITY SENSATIONS.
A Bullet Fired Into Train-Mrs. Ed
wards Back From Macon.

wards Back From Macon.
ATHENS, GA, Aug. 13.-Last night after
the passenger train on the Northeastern
railroad had left Gillsville, a station this
side of Lula junction, on its return to
Athens, a grating sound was heard like the
breaking of glass. The startled passengers
Immediately rose to their feet Mrs. Steel
a daughter of Col. w. II. Newton, of MAYS
vile, stated that several small particles of
glass had been knocked in her face A
small round hole was also found in the win
dow directly i'll front of where the lady was
sitting As the train was going at the rate
of twenty-five miles an hour the report of
pistol could not have been heard however
near it might have been, neither was there
a ball found in the car. 1t is the belief of
all present, however, that the hole in the
window was made with a small calibre
pistol. A passenger stated to the NEWS
correspondent, who was on board, that as
the fragments of glass were scattered on
the lady in the seat behind the hole, he
thought the person must have shot at the
coach as it approached him. No one was
occupying the seat next to the broken win
dow at the time the shooting occurred.
MRS. EDWARDS RETURN.
Among the arrivals on the midnight train
last night was Mrs. Florida Edwards, of
Macon, the surviving member OF the w Ool-
folk family. Owing to nervous prostration
Mrs. Edwards was confined to her bed
to-day. A News correspondent called on
her this morning, but was told that she
would probably see him in a day or two
Alderman j. V. Murray, who got into a
difficulty several weeks ago with Robert
Reaves and shot him, came in this after
noon and gave himself up. He was released
upon $1,000 bond. The friends of Mr..
Murray claim that he has not been
but "a short distance from the city, and
when wanted was reached in two hours.
Mr.. Reaves, the man who was shot, is
gradually improving and is able to sit up in
bed.
The remains of Robert Britain, who died
Monday at Milledgeville, were brought to
this city this morning and inferred in Geo
nee cemetery. A large number of friends
of the deceased met the remains at the
Northeastern railroad and accompanied
them to the grave.

am not treating her with profound respect
because she is far beyond the plane of the
respectable She were stunning gown of
SOFT red Wool, canvas yachting shoes,
jaunty red Tam O'Shanter on her yellow
curls and marine glass was slung over her
shoulder She raised a quizzing glass and
looked lis all over with measureless dlsdain
as she stepped ashore, though she knew that
every man there knew she was of the COM
monest of the common run in New York.
The dude i'll the blazer screwed single
glass TO his eye and wandered along by her
side. He looked as though his very heart
ached at the idea of mixing with the com
mon herd of mankind. The other two
were gorgeous in yachting fiannels with
caps, gold lace and rubber soled boots. They
staggered and man on my left, who owns
a $4,000 steam yacht, pulled his battered
old straw hat further down over his eyes
and said softly;
'Jimminie crack, but that knocks me
cold"
Everybody knows who the woman is"
said, land recognize the boy as clerk in
shop on Broadway where they sell Egyp-
tian tobacco"
But do you know who the other two
gorgeous creatures are" asked the yachts
man with some emphasis.
NO; never saw them before. Who are
they!'
'Salemen in my. place down in Beaver
street Neither Of them makes more than.

yet they're as rich as California millionaireS
apparently"

done and many man has followed his exam
pie. No one can explain from what source
nine-tenths of the people Of New York who
look like bullion kings draw their incomes,
and the more one learns about the real
standing of many of the bowling FOUNDERS
who lend pictureSqueness TO the town the
more complete is the surprise.
When an entry clerk in n ship
ping house whose salary cannot
be more than Sl5 a week, pulled out "A wad
of bills in my presence some time ago and
paid a bet to bookmaker of 5000, | caught
my breath for an instant but the book
maker didn't turn a hair
Il never make inquiries" he drawled
slowly, as the youth moved away for fear of
wounding the sensibilitieS of my patrons
and destroying my own faith in humanity
and honesty. Besides, it would cost me
about twenty thousand year"

Why Hannah Lett the Church


A lady was relating to me the other day
her trials and tribulations in the matter of
arranging the household machinery so thaC
the inevitable bitches and jars of the inner
workings should not be apparent to the out
side world. In describing the various idi-
osyncracies Of servants which had come
under her notice, she said Some years
ago had n good, settled whitewoman as
house servant, who, though of most cxem-
plary department in every other respect,
seemed to consider Sundays as in no wise
different from the other days of the week.
Finally | said to her: Hannah, why don't
you take your Sundays or You should
take some advantage of the opportunity to
so to church. You can appreciate my
feelings when she replied: well, Mrs.
-, used TO go reglar to church, but |
never jined. Ny next-door neghbor was a
shouting member, and tell you what she
done-she scalded my dog. That's ben
twenty years ago, and amt never went TO
church since'n

Good SpeculatiOns.

+. McComber, a former WELL
known Carsonite, arrived in Carson
Tuesday evening by way of Lake
Tahoe. He is among the few peo-
pie who forsaw Southern California
boom-and has profited handsomely
by his shrewdness. About four
years ago Mr.. McComber left Car
son for Murietta, San Diego county,
with a capital of $50, 900, all OF
which he invested in land. He is
now worth at least 100000. He
is very enthusiastic over the pros
poets of Southern California and be-
lieves that anyone with little bust
ness tact can realize well on any in
vestment there. He saws that II.
S. Mason is rapidly making a for
tune, being worth nearly 5000, 900.
Governor Stevenson is also the
owner OF a large tract of land in San
Diego county known as Pauba, to
look after which has caused his pre-
sent trip. The APPEAL is informed
that he owns $4,000 acres of land
at Paula and was recently offered
500 900 for it. The Governor is un-
decided as to what to do, as sew
eral people have informed him that
the land ought to bring 81 900, 900
in short time.
The APPEAL understands there
are several other residents of Carson
who are interested in land in til,
vicinity of Paula, and have flatter
ing prospects of realizing a gool
r 1und sum on their investments.
